I do not quite believe in the truth of the old saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" -- if our forefathers had any sense they would rather have said "A banana a day will help you survive any eventuality" -- but then, they were not so into the current buzz words --- and definitely had not discovered the 1001 different uses of bananas.......
But that is another story. What is important today is what to do with the millions of apples that are dragging the apple tree branches to the ground at the moment?
A few days ago I gave you a recipe for 'canned' apples and promised to share with you one of my very favourite recipes for a baked apples dessert. And true to my promise, here it is: One of the most delicious, easy and successful desserts you will ever make!
Danelle's Baked Apple and Cream Dessert:
4 oz butter/120 grms
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
¼ cup milk
1tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup flour
1 large tin apples (500gr) – or steamed apple halves (see my canned apple recipe)Cream the butter and sugar well
While continuing in the mixer:
Add the eggs, vanilla and salt
Sieve the flour and baking powder and add
Add milk
Pour into a large flat greased oven proof dish
Arrange the apples (upside down, if in halves) evenly on the batter.
Bake for 30 minutes at 190’-200’C – or until the centre is cooked -- when a knife comes out dry when inserted
When the cake is almost baked, and while still in oven, bring to boil for ten minutes:
1 cup sugar
1 cup fresh cream
The moment the dessert comes out of the oven pour the boiling sauce over the dessert.
Serve warm with ice cream, or cold
Delicious!
